Mr. Speaker, I am aware that the department has examined many aspects of the bill. There will also be an ongoing monitoring process by the Employment Insurance Commission.
The Reform Party has been saying that we should make it much more like an ordinary insurance system, maybe even make it a totally privatized system. This shows me that Reform Party members are not responsive to the concerns of Atlantic Canada, that they do not care one iota, not one ounce, not even a smidgen about the people in Atlantic Canada. Otherwise they would not hold that position.
